Trading layer
Compare Standard, Pro, Raw Spread and Zero using the same forex pair, volume, Ethiopia session and holding period. Membership is evaluated after this test.
Benefit valuation
Assign value only to benefits that replace a real expense or improve an observed workflow. Decorative status has no cash value.
Behaviour risk
Do not increase deposits, lot size or trading frequency solely to qualify or retain a tier. The resulting losses can exceed every benefit.
Cross-market scope
A forex cost advantage may not apply to XAUUSD, BTCUSD or indices because symbol commissions and spreads differ.
Decision rule
Choose only when the underlying account already fits the strategy and the independently measured benefit exceeds added cost or constraints.
